Chapter 656 Leaving
"Youguan is gone?" When arriving at Youguan, the spiritual master was the first to discover the abnormality of Youguan.

Luo Xueli walked to Youguan, observed it for a while and said, "It should be that the blood pool moved strangely just now, draining away the energy in it."

"No." Wen Guying said.

"What did you find out?" Luo Xueli asked.

"The sacred tree. We walked all the way to the blood pool but didn't see the sacred tree." Wen Guying replied.

"This underground maze is extremely large. What we have walked through so far is only a small part of it." Luo Xueli was very cautious. "If the sacred tree extracts energy, it will definitely cause a lot of commotion."

"We were all in the Ruiling beast's dream just now, so we ignored it." Wen Guying said.

"Let's find a way out first." Zhu Qingyun interrupted their discussion and said, "Let's go back and leave from another cave entrance."

"Okay," said Rochelle.

They walked back, and when they reached the cave entrance again, Elder Li said, "Let's go from the top."

"Up there? It's not empty, but a dangerous vortex." said Luo Xueli.

"Go up there." Wen Guying said.

"Okay." Luo Xueli didn't insist, "You lead the way?"

"Well, I'll do it," Wen Guying nodded and said, "You take the spiritual master and Yu Chen with you. Junior Sister Zhu, Brother Li is in your hands. Elder Li, please cover us."

"Do you want me to try to control this place again?" Li Chuan said, opening his eyes.

"You should have a good rest." Wen Guying said, took a step forward and stared at the hole above.

The moonlight has disappeared.

The spiritualist leaned against the wall and looked at the blood pool below. The blood was no longer surging, and the ground and the cinder heart stones on the four sides were mostly broken. It was a mess.

She sighed softly and said nothing.

Li Chuan heard her sigh, opened his eyes a little, and said, "It can be made up."

"What? What to supplement?" The spiritual master didn't react for a moment.

Li Chuan pointed downwards and felt that his fingers could no longer move.
When the spiritual master was about to ask again, Wen Gu responded.

The Tianqi Sword rang clearly, and the deep red sword light rushed straight to the cave entrance above. When it was about ten feet away from the cave entrance, the sword light split into countless small swords, and the dense sword rain flew in all directions, tearing open the invisible vortex at the cave entrance and opening a path.

"Let's go." Wen Guying said, and flew towards the cave entrance first.

"You first." Luo Xueli said to Zhu Qingyun.

Zhu Qingyun nodded and followed.

Li Chuan felt her shoulder blades exerting force, and her waist twisting from time to time. But she was very stable. He raised his head slightly, and some hair stuck to his face. He saw the vortex. They were flying out of the vortex. In addition to the sword light, there seemed to be some translucent, constantly swimming fish in the vortex...

A fish swam past him, and then he felt a refreshing breeze blowing on his face.

He came out.

Then, Luo Xueli jumped out of the cave with the spiritual master and Yu Chen.

After a while, Elder Li also came out. At this time, the sky was slightly bright.

"Another night has passed." said Li Chuan.

Zhu Qingyun put him on the ground. He was too tired, so he lay down. The ground was very cold.

"What happened in Songdu?" Wen Guying asked Luo Xueli.

"The Micropod tribe entered Songdu through a secret tunnel and broke the seal under the ground. They tried to steal the corpses of the ancient monsters inside. When they found it difficult, they destroyed the corpses." Luo Xueli said.

"Didn't you stop them?" the spiritual master asked anxiously after hearing this.

"When they found it, they had already entered the core area. They were very careful. I suspect they dug the tunnel secretly, maybe for many years." Luo Xueli explained: "It was Gongdaoyou who discovered something was wrong."

"How did he find out?" Li Chuan asked after hearing Gong Er's name.

"He had a dream. He dreamed that there were many bugs crawling underground." Luo Xueli answered, "He told me and several guards of the Xun clan. We searched for it but couldn't find it. Later, Doctor Lao discovered the tunnel. At that time, they were already destroying the seal quietly. But after that, for them, it was just a dream that they couldn't wake up from. Moreover, it affected other half-demons underground at the time." He looked at the spiritual master and said, "I didn't want to kill them at first, but the situation was urgent at the time. I couldn't determine the scope, so I had to use heavy hands."

"I understand." The spiritualist said, and then she added, "You did the right thing."

Luo Xueli nodded as if she heard a satisfactory answer.

Wen Guying said, "Luckily you came here." He paused and said, "I feel that the cracks in the Cangwu wilderness have been closed."

The spiritualist remembered what Li Chuan had said before, and she asked, "Can it really be repaired down there?"

Li Chuan sat up and Elder Li threw a Fuguang Fruit to him.

Li Chuan took two bites and felt that he had regained some strength.

"It looks miserable, but it's actually not that bad. I only know a rough idea of ​​the function of the blood pool, but only about one-third of it is broken, and that one-third can't be repaired," Li Chuan recalled the information he got after controlling the blood pool, and said, "Among the rest, one-third is no longer functioning. They are intact, but no longer functioning, and I don't know what they do. Among the other one-third, there may be a part that involves the half-demon reincarnation, and the ground and walls outside paved with cinder heart stones, which can be repaired, about 60% to 70%. Also, repairing it requires some materials, and it can't be repaired out of thin air. The rest is time. Wait until things here are over, and I'll repair it slowly."

The spiritual master said, "As for the materials, I'll find a way. Thank you, Mr. Li, for being willing to help."

"We are all friends." Li Chuan said, "Let me recover for a while." He finished eating the Fuguang Fruit, stood up, took two steps, and said, "There is also Youxi Valley. If Taoist Master Wen's speculation is correct, then Chi Lin's other clone has already woken up." He looked at Wen Guying and asked, "Where is Sect Leader Chu? He should be here, right?"

Wen Guying shook his head and said, "I didn't find him."

"Why are you letting me down at this time?" Li Chuan sighed and said, "Let's not wait for him. Should we go directly there?"

"Let's meet up with Jiang Mei first, he's coming." Wen Guying said.

"Okay." Li Chuan said, he looked around and asked, "Where are we now?"

"Near Xiaohe Lake." said the spiritual master.

"No wonder I saw the fish just now." said Li Chuan.

"What fish?" Wen Guying asked.

Li Chuan then described the translucent fish he saw in the whirlpool and asked, "Didn't you see it?"

"I felt some special energy bodies, but I didn't look closely, and I just thought about coming out." Wen Guying said, he paused, looked into the distance, and said, "Jiang Mei is here."
